The CRI Community Living Arrangement (CLA) Program provides twenty-four hour supports to adults living in licensed group homes located across all three DDS regions.  The individuals living in these homes have need for significant support in all skill areas.  The CLA programs provide habilitative, social and recreational choices that enable the individual to develop increased levels of independence and personal success.  Every home offers a safe, comfortable home environment.  Each home supports between 3 and 6 individuals, most have private bedrooms.  Highly trained support staff are available on all shifts to assist individuals in all activities of daily living.  Every home has an activity schedule developed with individual choices and preferences in mind.  Homes provide individualized program plans, leisure and community integration opportunities that are meaningful to the individual.

The CLAs are licensed by DDS and are monitored on a regular basis for compliance to regulations and quality of services.  All support plans in the CLA programs are developed through the IDT person centered planning process and are funded by both DSS and DDS.  CRI ensures individuals residing in the CLA programs are active members of their home and community.
